[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 510043, member: 24910"] Can't agree with this.... what exactly is this based on? He certainly didn't have his best game in the weekend, with his hands letting him down, but he has had a number of strong test in his limited test career thus far, and looked very comfortable at test level. I'd certainly say he has been far more convincing in test rugby in his first 15 test than Nonu was in his first 15! I think he has the potential to set the game alight at least as much (if not more) than Nonu, and as the form 12 in NZ rugby this season deserves to start the next test (and Nonu will benefit from more rest too). Whether we should be picking someone who isn't likely to be playing rugby in NZ next season (let alone at the next RWC) is an interesting question, and I'm not quite sure what the answer is.....
